Early the next morning, before most people were awake, Anita sneaked to the owl shed and sent Sherlock a small piece of the basilisk's skin.

In the following day, Anita and the others were treated like heroes throughout Hogwarts.In order to appease the anxious people in the school after the attack by the basilisk, the news that the basilisk was wiped out by Anita and the others spread quickly in the early morning.Everyone was happily talking about the Chamber of Secrets and the Basilisk, and they also told the story of Anita and the others fighting the Basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets in a decent way. Anita alone heard seven different versions. .In these stories, Anita is literally omnipotent.Anita tried to correct her a few times at the beginning, but then she became too tired to bother. Anyway, the heat will go down after a while.And, Anita has bigger things to worry about than this gossip.

After a day of anxiety, Anita and Draco stepped into Severus' office together.To Anita's surprise, Severus seemed to be in a much better mood, maybe he wasn't so angry this time?

It was only later that Anita discovered that Severus wasn't angry, he was holding back his big move.

Severus said that Anita had the time and energy to do things, it must be because she was too free, so he added a lot of homework to Anita, ensuring that Anita returned to the dormitory every night with only the energy left to go to bed.And Draco, as an accomplice who didn't report what he knew, was also forced to sit down. He was squeezed by his homework every day and even memorized the knowledge of potions in his sleep and dreams.

In the following week, Anita seemed to have returned to the time when she was sprinting before the college entrance examination in her previous life, and her days felt like years.What's more frightening is that there is at least a time limit for the college entrance examination, and Severus didn't set a time limit for their punishment at all. It is very likely that they will spend the remaining five years in Hogwarts like this.

QAQ, Dad please love me again.

However, no matter how coquettish and cute Anita was this time, Severus had no intention of showing mercy.

In the middle of the night, Anita sneaked to Draco's door again.

Draco was startled after opening the door, rubbing his eyes, "Did something happen?"

"I need your help," Anita said.

Draco frowned worriedly and said, "What's the matter? Come in and talk."

Anita sat casually against the bed on the carpet, handed Draco a pair of sunglasses made by Draco, and said, "Put them on first."

Draco raised his eyebrows suspiciously, but put it on obediently.

Anita raised her wrist and said in Parseltongue, "Helpo, say hello to Draco."

Then, Draco was horrified to find that the snake-shaped bracelet on Anita's left wrist moved, and a snake about the thickness of a finger with a red crested hair stared at him with a pair of big cold yellow eyes, and slowly vomited. He lowered his forked tongue and "hissed" at Draco a few times.

"Hairbo said he likes your smell very much." Anita translated for Haierbo.

"Should I say it's an honor?" Draco complained, seeing that Anita really nodded, he suddenly felt that he didn't even have the strength to complain.He really didn't think it was an honor to be complimented by a snake - and it looked like a poisonous one - for its good taste.

"How do you have a snake?" Draco asked. "Wait, you made me wear the anti-basilisk death sight glasses? You're not going to tell me it's a basilisk are you?" Draco's voice A little trembling, although as a Slytherin, he has a good impression of snakes, but the sudden appearance of a basilisk with a dangerous level of max staring at everyone, this shock is too big.

"It's the basilisk," Anita said.

"Didn't you say the basilisk is dead?"

"The reason for this is a bit complicated. To put it simply, Haierbo is the child of the dead basilisk."

"So you plan to keep this basilisk?"

"Of course." Anita nodded as a matter of course, and didn't think there was anything wrong with raising a basilisk that stared at everyone.

Draco held his forehead helplessly, and after a while, he accepted the reality and asked Anita, "What do you need me to do?"

"Can you make something like this glasses? It can not affect Hai Erbo's eyesight, but also make him not hurt people. Well, it's better to kill with sight when you want to kill with sight, and kill with sight when you don't want to. People don't accidentally hurt people when they see it." Anita said.

"Your request is really not low." Draco complained, and he became excited in an instant. He took out a piece of parchment and started to write and draw, "Well, the design of the sunglasses before can be used for reference, but it is still To add some more features, let me think..."

Under the pressure of various homework, time is forced to move forward frame by frame in an unprecedented slow motion.A week later, while having breakfast, Anita finally received Sherlock's reply.Anita took down the letter held by the owl, and asked suspiciously, "Why are you so obedient this time? This doesn't seem to be your character. Did the petrification spell work so well last time?"

The owl couldn't answer Anita's question, he didn't even wait for Anita's reply, he flew away in a panic, and hit the wall during the flight, as if he had been greatly frightened.

Anita frowned in confusion, and opened Sherlock's reply letter. Unexpectedly, there was only a time and address in the letter, and nothing else.

Anita raised her eyebrows and said with interest, "Interesting."

"What's wrong?" Draco asked.

Anita handed the letter to Draco, Draco read it, frowned and asked, "That Muggle named Sherlock asked you to meet?"

"It's not Sherlock," said Anita. "The font and stationery are exactly the same, but Sherlock knows that I go to a closed boarding school. He can't ask me to meet, let alone ask me to meet on weekdays." .”

"But the owl is Sherlock's?" Draco asked. "Are you sure?"

"I'm sure. I'll never mistake that damned owl."

"You mean someone changed Sherlock's letter to you?"

"Yes," Anita said, "and the person who changed the letter didn't know that I was only a second-year wizard."

"Do you know who this person who exchanged letters is?"

"There is a bit of speculation." Anita said, "I have also exchanged letters with Sherlock before, but there has been no problem, which means that the person who exchanged letters was not because of racial differences between Muggles and wizards, so the exchange of letters is related to the recent These several communications are all about Lockhart, and last time Sherlock’s letter mentioned that Lockhart may have some connection with MI6 and Moriarty, and it just so happens that people from both sides The ability to replace the owl letter, so I guess it's one of those two, either Mycroft Holmes or Moriarty."

"Wait." Seeing Anita's interested expression, Draco couldn't help frowning, "You don't really want to meet this person, do you?"

"Why not? What secrets does Lockhart have that attracted the attention of the British Intelligence Service and the criminal genius at the same time? Why did he come to Hogwarts? I'm curious." Anita felt that the secret room last time The trip completely ignited the adventure factor in her body. When she read this letter, she actually felt excited?This is something that good girl didn't have before.Well, she wasn't very good before.But before, she was mostly passively involved in those things, not actively looking for stimulation like she is now.

But there's nothing wrong with that, anyway, because of having such a troublesome father, coupled with the confusing secret room, one can already predict how wonderful her life will be in the future.It's better to enjoy the adventure than not to have to get involved.

"You can write another letter to Sherlock," Draco suggested.

"It's useless. This person can change the letter that Sherlock gave me, which means that he can guarantee that my letter will not be delivered to Sherlock. After all, sending letters by owls is not so safe."

"But sneaking out?" Draco looked around and said in a low voice, "Are you crazy? You will be expelled!"

"It's not a violation if you don't get caught," Anita said.

"But you can't get out." Draco said coldly, "Even if you could do it before, it's impossible now. Have you finished your compound potion? Have you finished memorizing "The Great Potion of the Twentieth Century"?" ?Have you finished sorting out the potions invented by the Prince family? Let me see, the appointed time is Wednesday afternoon. Although you didn’t have classes at that time, all the spare time between the two of us was used for confinement. You Are you sure you can sneak out under your father's nose?"

"It's tough, we can still be friends if you shut up now." Anita lay powerlessly on the table.

When Draco saw Anita, he became wilted instantly, and even the hair on his head drooped. He couldn't help but rubbed Anita's hair, and said, "If you want to know Lockhart's secret, you can ask him directly." , a few drops of Veritaserum, he might have said everything. If it doesn’t work, he can use Legilimency. If Lockhart is really a Muggle, or almost a Muggle, as you guessed, he can’t resist it Legilimency."

"If Lockhart is really what I guessed, then he should not be afraid of Veritaserum or Legilimency." Anita guessed, "Lockhart has been in the wizarding world for so many years, he must know this He also knows that there are very powerful wizards in Hogwarts. Since he still dares to come to Hogwarts, it means that he is not afraid of them."

"But how is that possible?" Draco said in disbelief. "A Muggle?"

"I don't know," said Anita, "but I want to know."

But how can I get out?More importantly, how can I hide it from my father's eyes?

Anita's eyes lit up suddenly, and she grabbed Draco's arm and said, "I have an idea, and I need your help."

"I'm kind da in the middle of the last favorite you asked metodo. (I haven't finished the last favor you asked me for.)" Draco said.

"Please~ (Please~)" Anita made a big move on Draco—puppyeye.

Draco covered Anita's eyes with his hands, there was no way he could refuse that look.

"You promise that your plan will not be in danger?" Draco asked.

"I promise." Anita nodded. "I'm just going to meet a Muggle. There's no danger."

Draco felt that there was something wrong with Anita's words, but Anita's eyelashes fluttered gently in Draco's palm, which made Draco unable to concentrate and seriously affected his ability to think.When Draco came back to himself, he heard himself say, "Okay, what do I need to do?"
